A question to KCCessnaDriver, Dead Meat, or anyone else going the recruiting process. Are they still telling you there is a two year upgrade?

F9 just released their latest upgrade class (VSA 1-2017) and the most junior pilot awarded a Capt slot is an April of 2006 hire. And that was out of 4 slots that were filled. I'm not sure what the number of people on the seniority last that have by-passed, but obviously some of those people are now taking the upgrade. Introduce a West Coast base and I would think a lot of those who by-passed would take an upgrade and the upgrade time at F9 would skyrocket. That's good info to base part of an employment decision on.
